NATIONAL FFA CONVENTION
Traditional at the FFA is to recognize adults who have contributed greatly to the success of the organization. They received a rousing ovation from Future Farmers for their interest and support for the FFA cause. Fifteen of these donors were selected for special recognition for contributing to the FFA Foundation for fifteen consecutive years.
At the donor reception, Future Farmers had the opportunity to meet the men who keep the FFA Foundation running. A special session held in the Royal Arena featured final livestock judging in the FFA division and a horse show. And strolling through the barns, convention-goers could see some of the country's best livestock being hollowed out for the show.
The American Royal FFA division champion steer was shown by Conroy Johnson of Spirit Lake, Iowa.

These are just a few of the questions asked by ranchers everywhere, including thousands of Future Farmers. We will never see a fully automated operation for the small farmer because of the capital outlay. He probably won't do business unless he wants to give away his labor, or use this means to market low-cost roughage.
It will be difficult for him to compete with the large, automated feedlots that have moved in. A greater percentage of these cattle will be located in the Eastern and Southern states than we have today. As long as a region can produce large quantities of grain, it will still hold promise for large feedlots.

It is a 1430 hectare site which is leased from the US by the State Association for 25 years free of charge. Most were grade cattle, and it was understood that they would later be sold and a registered herd developed. In the autumn of 1957 the grade cattle were sold and 33 registered cows and one bull were purchased.
At the state convention in June, the FFA Farm Committee recommended purchasing 30 additional cows this fall. Currently, the registered herd consists of 79 cows, five bulls, 25 heifers and 33 calves. Instead, it should serve as a demonstration farm and source of quality breeding stock for members of the Mississippi FFA.
Then the responsibility for running the farm is also a good training ground for FFA members.
